Arsenal might offer a player in the deal to sign 26-year-old Brazilian international Bruno Guimaraes from Newcastle United this summer.
According to a report by Football Transfers, Bruno Guimaraes is the subject of interest from Arsenal. The Gunners are keen on signing a midfielder in the summer transfer window. And they are ready to make an audacious offer of a part-exchange deal to sign the 26-year-old Newcastle United talisman.
Bruno Guimaraes and his immediate impact at Newcastle United
Bruno Guimaraes has been one of the best players in the Premier League since joining Newcastle United from Lyon in January 2022. He took to the English top flight like a fish to water, immediately becoming a pivotal figure for the Tyneside outfit and helping them evade relegation in the 2021/22 season.
Guimaraes then helped Newcastle United qualify for the UEFA Champions League by finishing in the top four in the 2022/23 season. However, the Magpies and the 26-year-old suffered a dip in performance levels in the 2023/24 campaign, although the player still managed a decent tally of seven goals and ten assists in 50 appearances across all competitions.
Meanwhile, the Brazilian international has captured the attention of several high-profile clubs across Europe with his exploits for Newcastle United. The who’s who of European football have set their sights on Guimaraes, with Arsenal among his prospective suitors heading into the summer transfer window.
London calling?
Arsenal’s interest in Bruno Guimaraes is understandable. The Gunners are scouring the market for a midfielder heading into the summer transfer window amid uncertainties surrounding the future of Thomas Partey. The Newcastle United talisman has thus emerged as a viable target for Arsenal.
The Gunners are reportedly ready to sell a few players to secure Bruno Guimaraes’s services in the summer transfer window. The latest report has revealed that Arsenal will likely offer an audacious part-exchange deal to sign the 26-year-old from Newcastle United. However, that might not be enough to tempt the Tyneside outfit to sell the midfielder.
Arsenal’s bid to sign the Brazilian international in the summer transfer window might go up in smoke. So, it will be interesting to see who they identify as the alternative to the Newcastle United talisman.
